  Mr. SOLOMON, by direction of the Committee on Rules, called up the 
following resolution (H. Res. 245):

       Resolved, That at any time after the adoption of this 
     resolution it shall be in order to consider in the House the 
     concurrent resolution (H. Con. Res. 109) expressing the sense 
     of the Congress regarding the need for reform of the social 
     security earnings limit, if called up by the majority leader 
     or his designee. The concurrent resolution shall be debatable 
     for twenty minutes equally divided and controlled by the 
     majority leader and the minority leader or their designees. 
     The previous question shall be considered as ordered on the 
     concurrent resolution to final adoption without intervening 
     motion.
       Sec. 2. At any time after the adoption of this resolution, 
     the Speaker may, pursuant to clause 1(b) of rule XXIII, 
     declare the House resolved into the Committee of the Whole 
     House on the state of the Union for further consideration of 
     the bill (H.R. 2491) to provide for reconciliation pursuant 
     to section 105 of the concurrent resolution on the budget for 
     fiscal year 1996. All time for general debate under the terms 
     of the order of the House of October 24, 1995, shall be 
     considered as expired. Further general debate shall be 
     confined to the bill and amendments specified in this 
     resolution and shall not exceed three hours equally divided 
     and controlled by the chairman and ranking minority member of 
     the Committee on the Budget. After general debate the bill 
     shall considered for amendment under the five-minute rule. An 
     amendment in the nature of a substitute consisting of the 
     text of H.R. 2517, modified by the amendments printed in the 
     report of the Committee on Rules accompanying this 
     resolution, shall be considered as adopted in the House and 
     in the Committee of the Whole. The bill, as amended, shall be 
     considered as the original bill for the purpose of further 
     amendment under the five-minute rule. The bill, as amended, 
     shall be considered as read. All points of order against 
     provisions in the bill, as amended, are waived. No further 
     amendment shall be in order except the further amendment in 
     the nature of a substitute consisting of the text of H.R. 
     2530, which may be offered only by the minority leader or his 
     designee, shall be considered as read, shall be debatable for 
     one hour equally divided and controlled by the proponent and 
     an opponent, and shall not be subject to amendment. All 
     points of order against the further amendment in the nature 
     of a substitute are waived. After a motion that the Committee 
     rise has been rejected on a day, the Chair may entertain 
     another such motion on that day only if offered by the 
     chairman of the Committee on the Budget or the majority 
     leader or a designee of either. At the conclusion of 
     consideration of the bill for amendment the Committee shall 
     rise and report the bill, as amended, to the House with such 
     further amendment as may have been adopted. The previous 
     question shall be considered as ordered on the bill, as 
     amended, and any amendment thereto to final passage without 
     intervening motion except one motion to recommit with or 
     without instructions. The motion to recommit may include 
     instructions only if offered by the minority leader or his 
     designee. The yeas and nays shall be considered as ordered on 
     the question of passage of the bill and on any conference 
     report thereon. Clause 5(c) of rule XXI shall not apply to 
     the bill, amendments thereof, or conference reports thereon.

  When said resolution was considered.
  After debate,
  Mr. SOLOMON moved the previous question on the resolution to its
